This shameful use of political power to burden children who cannot vote yet with a debt that is greater than what they will earn in their future work lifetime, is a monumental act of cowardly financial irresponsibility.
What say all of you?

Greed on a breathtaking scale.
To: Graewoulf
It is shameful.
However: the debt is going to be repaid by THIS generation in the form of a rapidly devalued dollar, confiscated pensions and other forms of financial repression.
Don’t be in paper assets when all this happens. Buy precious metals (and make the usual domestic preparations).

The left, through Obamacare and re-engineering of the US population are planning that many of those children, along wiith their parents, will not be around.

I blame the American voters who get the goverment they deserve. They want all the benefits the welfare state has to offer, but don’t want to pay the bill. Instead, they put it on the tab of future generations. It is generational theft.

Greed on a breathtaking scale. It has to incredible financial ignorance or a diabolical plan to destroy the American economy.
If the U.S. and Europe were third world nations and Russia and China the world leaders, that could change the course of history.

The Leftist’s philosophy should be considered as follows:
‘Allow the murder of as many babies in utero at possible and tax the rest to death before birth.’

Don’t worry — the “rich” will pay for it all once they start paying their “fair share” of taxes.

Two problems with this. 1] Presidents have been burdening children for a long time, wars and welfare don’t come cheap. 2] People are more concerned about themselves not children. Children are regarded as a cost burden to be avoided.

"The amount is $ 3.5 MILLION per baby born today" $3.5 million if we ignore the $100+ trillion in unfunded liabilities. If this gang of crooks and thugs used GAAP accounting, they would have been declared insolvent at least two decades ago. Zombie government eating our children.
